The V 50 NATO was purchased in 1981 by the Royal Dutch Army as a replacement for the Triumph 3TA. It was remarkable that the "predefined" requirements for this motorcycle exactly matched the Moto Guzzi V 50 III. This probably came because the Italian government had bought less V 50 than expected. As a result, there were a number of motorcycles left over at the factory, which could be owned for a small price. The V 50 III motorcycles were adapted for this: the appearance was that of the older V 50, obviously sprayed in olive green and all the chrome was replaced with matt black lacquer. The machine was equipped with war lights, other cylinder heads with smaller valves and a lower compression ratio and the 24 mm V 50 carriers. The machine was fitted with two large fall protection brackets, and for serviced Marechaussees a screen was mounted with canvas underflaps. The instructors also initially got this window.
